It is reopening as Zanubia's (sp?), a similar type of restaurant with some additional new offerings, in a week. The former owner of Wafa's niece is taking over the new place. So, Wafa's is closed for good and will reopen as this new place.

Drake, thanks for the update. This seems like good news -- at least it's staying in the family and hopefully some of Wafa's recipes make it over to the new restaurant. Thanks again, and sorry for hi-jacking the Common thread!
